JPEGIFICATION forming partI of Letters Patent No. 71 1,945, dated October 28, 1902. Application filed December 9. 1901. Serial No. 85,172. (No model.)

To all whom it nut/y concern:

Be it known that 1, MICHAEL J DALY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Pittsburg, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Mailing-Envelops, of which improvement the following is a specification.

This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in envelops, and relates particularly to an envelop having formed therein a pocket or receptacle to convey postage and the like.

Another object of the present invention is :5 to provide a pocket for transmitting money or the like, which may be formed integral with the regular envelop-blank, or it may be separately formed and afterward secured thereto by means of mucilage or the like.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an envelop of this class that will be-extremely simple in construction, strong, durable, and comparatively inexpensive to manufacture. With the above and other objects in view the invention consists in the novel construction, combination, and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter more fully described, and specifically pointed out in the claim.

'In describing the invention in detail reference is had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, and wherein like characters of reference indicate like parts throughout the several views, in which- Figure l is a front View of my improved envelop. Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the blank.

In the drawings the reference-numeral 1 40 represents the body portion of the envelopblank, carrying side flaps 2 2, a securing-flap 3, and a lower flap 4., having a curved cutaway portion A. A series of perforations 5 are formed in the flap 4, allowing the coin to be visible through same.

' It will be seen that when the envelop is ready for use and before the sealing-flap 3 is secured to its proper position a coin may be easily slipped into the opening and will be clearly visible through the perforations 5.

The many advantages obtained by the use of my improved envelop will be readily apparent-from the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings.

It will be noted that various changes may be made in the details of construction without departing from the general spirit of my invention.

Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

An envelop-blank having flaps 2, 2 adapted to overlap each other and forming the rear wall to a pocket, a flap 4 having its end cut away and concaved as at A and designed to be left unsealed between the marginal end of said concaved portion and a series of perforations 5 extending over the overlapping ends of said flaps 2, and a flap 3 adapted to be sealed over the end adjacent to said cut-away 7o portion, and to close the opening into the pocket thus formed, as set forth.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto signed my name in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.

MICHAEL J. DALY.

In presence of- J. F. MOKENNA, ANNA EPSTEIN.
